Answer:
15;9;-8
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 5/3x-3=2/3x+12
x=15 once you combine like terms
2. 5x+35-3x+12=7x+2
2x+47=7x+2
5x=45
x=9
3. 12x+20-3=9x-7
12x+17=9x-7
3x=-24
x=-8
A. 2x+y=25; x+y=20
x represents cheese wafers and y represents chocolate wafers.
B. I will choose elimination since there is y and y. I can multiply one equation by -1 to get y and -y, which cancels out.
2x+y=25
-x-y=-20
Add equations
x=5
Plug x in
5+y=20
y=15
Final answer: 5 cheese wafers, 15 chocolate wafers

Rashida owns a bike rental company. She charges an initial fee of $10 for each rental and an hourly rate of $4. A customer paid $34 for a bike rental. Which of the equations below could be used to find how many hours, x, the customer rented the bike?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Amount customer paid = $34
Initial fee = $10
Hourly rate = $4
We need to write the equation used to find how many hours, x, the customer rented the bike.
Solution:
Let the number of hours customer rented the bike be 'x'.
Now we can say that;
Amount customer paid is equal to sum of Initial fee plus Hourly rate multiplied by number of hours customer rented the bike.
framing in equation form we get;

Hence The equation used to find number of hours customer rented the bike is
.
